Ok, the apartment was nice. It was a studio though, not what we’d call an apartment. There is no door between bedroom and living room, and the bathroom door is glass (so no privacy). More annoying: no fridge. It’s the first time I have ever seen anything calling itself an apartment and yet have no fridge. That’s just not ok! Especially as trip advisor here says “all our apartments have fridge”. The knives and spoons were filthy when I arrived, the cleaner clearly had not washed them. Carpet was a bit dirty too.
Comms were fine before the stay, and the location was great. Do not bother with taxis - bus 80 is very frequent - take it to Rondo Jagiellonow, change to any tram going towards old town - it’s one stop. There’s a 7-eleven (polish version) at the stop, and the street of the flat is just there, it’s a 3 minute walk. You can buy public transport tickets on machines across town, but the airport bus driver sells as well (it’s 3PLN for the ride across zones, or 60p. Why pay more?
The apartment is less than 10 min walk to old town, with the river and the boat rides, mill island and the tightrope Walker. Don’t miss the cathedral, it’s very pretty inside.
As the location is great for trans, don’t forget to use the trams down Gdanska street to visit the archer, the dancing fountain, the basilica and various museums.
